sToNEwALL JACKsoN's GHOST.
Nightly Visits to the Virginia Military In.
stitute at Lexington.

LEXINGTON, Va, Feb I-Consderable
sensation has been created at the Virginia
military institute here and in this section
by Il remarkable phenomenon or optical
delusion or whatever it may be called, in
which those who witnessed the sight in
sist that they discovered II wonderful like
ness to Gen. Stonewall jackson in the
strange visitant At the breaking out Of
the war that officer was professor in this
institute. The following statement Is
is given by James Hilton, II well known
citizen OF this place
II send you thrilling and true account
of ghost which has recently appeared nj
the Virginia Military Institute. On The
night of the 2Stn, shortly after - o'clock,
H. the sentinel was walking his lonely
beat, his attention was attracted through
the sally port to the front Of the barracks
by Il slig vt sound resembling the rustiuV
of leaves by gentle wind. Instantly be
tween the two large 46-pOund siege pieces,
there appeared soldier dressed in a
confederate uniform, and mounted on II
large gray horse; his sword was
drawn, his horse tightly refined up and
two white plumes hoated gracefully above
bis hat. Tue sentinel, almost paralyZed
with terror, had gaZed upon the object
but an instant when the horse was started
through the sallyport in the court yard at
d round trut, crossing the stntinel's beat
and making no audible sound, although
be WAS passing over solid brick pave
ment. The sentinel challenged with a
loud voice, who goes there = The rider
| did not heed the challenge, but passed
on at the same pace until arriving at an
abrupt, dangerous and impossible preci-
pice in the rear of the barracks, he van
ished. The sentinel promptly called his
! corporal, who informed the lieutenant OF
the guard and the officer OF the day. The
guard was imme diately turned out and
though Il close seaCh was made no trace
OF horse or rider could be found On the
next night Il similar phenomenon was
witnessed by party of cadets and ct
zens. This time Il sentinel was stationed
in the centre of the sallyport to await the
reappearance of the horse and rider. Al
the same time rs on the night before, pre-
coded by the same sound, the horse aut
rider appeared and started through the
sallyport at great pace. The sentinel
commanded Halt, who goes there ? TN
horse approached pearer and nearer to the
| sentinel until within two feet of the poin
OF the bhyOnet and vanished, only tC
reappear just III rear of the sentinel Their
he passed on in the direction he had takel
the preceding night, again disappearing
at the edge of the precipice. An old vet
eran present recognized the grand and I'M
posing form of the rider to be none othe
than that of Gen. Stonewall Jackson. 81
far no explanation can be given of tn,
strange phenomenon.

Natick, Mass, where so many shoes are
made, voted no license last year. Since
then five liquor dealers have left town,
A have been convicted, II have paid fines
amounting to 500 and costs, two are in
the House of Correction and four more
have been sentenced there. There were
only 81 DRINKS before the police court in
six months, against lOl for the correspond
ing period of the year before, and of that
number u came in from other places
During the same time there were
only Ii assaults and other misde
meanors, against A the previous year
There was 2l5 per cent more crime under
license than there was under no license
The poor account WAS reduced in ten
months S934 10, which was saving of
more than one dollar in every seven, 1t
had been predicted that the enforcement
of prohibition would drive away trade.
The reverse proved to he true. All the
merchants report more trade and more
cash and people who formerly bought the
cheapest goods are now buying better
class of goods. The Natick people have
become clear in the opinion that they can
not afford to license rumholes.
